Teen advocate and trailblazer Jazz Jennings—named one of “The 25 Most Influential Teens” of the year byTime—shares her very public transgender journey, as she inspires people to accept the differences in others while they embrace their own truths.“[Jazz’s] touching book serves as a rallying cry for understanding and acceptance.”—BustleJazz Jennings is one of the youngest and most prominent voices in the national discussion about gender identity. At the age of five, Jazz transitioned to life as a girl, with the support of her parents. A year later, her parents allowed her to share her incredible journey in her first Barbara Walters interview, aired at a time when the public was much less knowledgeable or accepting of the transgender community. This groundbreaking interview was followed over the years by other high-profile interviews, a documentary, the launch of her YouTube channel, a picture book, and her own reality TV series—I Am Jazz—making her one of the most recognizable activists for transgender teens, children, and adults.
